Beautiful. I've been comparing this stage of the economic crisis to the eye of the storm also- it's good to see others developing that metaphor as well.

I've read people claiming it is the eye since March. I suppose everyone is correct over a long enough time frame.

Sorry, I forgot what thread I was in. 
It always irritates me when people bring arguments into this thread.

I try not to read this thread because it makes me want to argue.

that is a good question.

Teabaggers are on my terrorist watch list. There's a possibility of a mosque shooting in the next couple of weeks.
